The conservative message in Forrest Gump was when he was in Viet Nam. His platoon gets wiped out and his first instinct is to run away. But then he realizes his buddies need him. He runs back and gets Lt. Dan and the others. Unfortunately he brings back Bubba too late. Also, there are - I think - two times in the movie when he sees Jenny being abused and without thinking about it, he starts wailling on the abuser. Those are conservative, Christian values. To help and protect the weak and sick.

I'm afraid V for Vendetta is a totalitarian propaganda film disguised as a libertarian movie. The purpose of the film is to trick the viewer into thinking Christians and conservatives are totalitarians, while painting actual totalitarians (Islamists and the Politically Correct left) as freedom fighters.

A story about a man, a capitalist no less, who defies the government and opposes the massive overwhelming tyrannical authority of a murderous totalitarian socialist state to stand up for the freedom and liberties of a small group of decent but powerless individuals, who supports their freedom to worship their religion and by using the bureaucracy of the state apparatus against itself, and by standing up to their dictatorial powers, helps them to maintain their dignity and family life against the all powerful government and by his courageous actions allows thousands of them to make a new life in a new land called Israel.

Hmmmm, if that ain’t a conservative message I’m not sure what your definition of conservatism is.

OK - Thanks. I don’t remember much about the movie. I saw it many years ago and it just made me uncomfortable - I think because it made Forest a hero because he wasn’t a thinker. What you said makes sense.

If you like Apolllo 13 as a choice, check out The Right Stuff, which I believe was about the Mercury program. After watching that flick, you’ll want to fly the biggest American flag you can get your hands on. I’ve never felt so proud to be an American from watching any other film. It’s long, around 3 hours l, but well worth it.

I cant remember a movie that so captured a time in America that embodied What and who we are .
The spirit of Exploration ,courage and Accomplishment,I came out of the Theater thinking where did that America go ,What a Shame it has all been lost

My brother loves Barbershop, he almost drove me crazy talking aboiut it, then I saw it. It is a wonderful movie, extremely funny, but with a very good message about family and tradition and caring for others.

I’d forgotten that one. Kenneth Branaugh may have his faults, but he could do Shakespeare like few others have been able to. I wish he would return to doing so, rather than the crap he has done over the last several years.

We hope this film corrects that view, while also exploring the specifics of the Bielski story. You have to consider how they felt. Where is God when they are hiding and scratching out this existence in the forests? Where is love in the forest? What is it like to be a child in the forest? All these things were important."
